RE: Projected 8-team playoff: What the at-large race looks like
OK, bringing back this thread after the weekend's results, mostly OSU dismantling Michigan and Washington beating Washington STate
Autobids (projected): Alabama, Clemson, Oklahoma, Ohio State, UCF, Washington
Notre Dame is a lock for one of the two at-larges.
And we'd be looking to CCG weekend to determine the last at-large.
12-1 Alabama would be a lock. If all the favorites win, then it's between Georgia and Michigan, almost by default. Does Georgia look worse vs Alabama than Michigan did vs Ohio State?
11-2 Georgia (beat Kentucky, Florida in the top 25, lost to LSU and presumably Bama)
10-2 Michigan (lost to Notre Dame, Ohio State, beat Penn State, Northwestern)
9-3 LSU (beat Georgia, Miss State, 7OT loss to A&M, losses to Florida, Alabama) was eliminated this week by Texas A&M. Right?
10-2 Washington State beat Utah, lost to Washington and to USC (and maybe the refs, but USC is 5-7, so cry about it)
EDIT: Maybe Texas? 2 losses to Oklahoma, plus a shootout with Okie State?
